A bicycle trailer is disclosed which can be reconfigured to act as a bicycle transport unit. When the trailer is in use towed behind a bicycle, its internal volume for receiving items to be transported is too small to accommodate a bicycle, even if the bicycle is broken down into its major parts. In accordance with the invention, the trailer has an internal frame (1 to 7), parts of which can be telescopically arranged in others to enable the frame to be enlarged or reduced in size, and an external shell (35, 36, 40) with foldable sections. The base of the frame (1) may have wheels (15, 17) enabling it to be rolled along when used as a carrying case. The trailer wheels (11) may be detachably mounted to either side of the frame base (1). A towbar (20) may be detachably fixed to the frame base (1).
